The Lucknow Sentinel, 1983-09-28, Page 15rlpley news
It was a great fall fait. The
1983 Ripley fall fair held last
SaturdaySept. 24 was
favourewith warm, dry,
mild weather sandwiched
between Friday which had
rain and hail squalls and
Sunday afternoon which had.
rain driMMle at times. Pot
this favour we can all be
humbly thankful.
tt was so nice to be outside
on a day like last Saturday -
a time to meet with friends
and to feel good - l: o wonder-
ful-fot, ftipley's "friendly fall
fair held in the country on
the last Saturday its
Sepptember."
On our walk back home we
met first with president
Keith van der Hoek and ask-
ed for his eon -tient.
"Everything went well" was
Keith's reply, norther along
north of the Knox Church sh-
ed Ab W ids met with
secretary Don MaeTavish
and his answer was "ft was
100 per Cent", In our walk
aeross the grounds at three
thirty in the afternoon it was
nice to see the Crowd spread
out watehing all parts of the
fair,
First at the east side on the
school grounds there was
Finlay MacDonald with his
steam engine and separator.
Kenny MacDonald was fork-
ing in grain sheaves supplied
Fb ' Wayne Kerr. Short John
inlayson took a turd n the
load of sheaves - likely the
first John forked in years. It
was a -teal threshing as at
least a dozen bags of grain
were filled.
On the ball field the team
of heavy horses were c.ircl-
ing. The frog jumping com-
petition was, in progress.
Maybe next year we will
feature the Ontario cham-
Rionships here and in our
eunion year 19 85 perhaps
the Canadian ehanipionship.
Further on it was the out-
door Concessions and the
' `sanctioned"oat show the
cattle and 4-1 eatves from
Knox Shed, `then there were
the game booths tor the kids.
Pint* the Complex was
reached with people dewing
the exhibits,
AD along the way it was a
ease of renewing aeq p ain-
tanCes with friends ba for
the day, In the Huron
Township hall it was the
regional poult-y show and at
the back of the park it was
the light horse show directed
by Nina Wyld and her Com-
mittee. Then there was the
sheep shbw and by the hall
the pet show and of course
the refreshment booths. So
many people and so many
things make up a country
fall air.
